Enroll in Independent Study

If you would like to earn an additional 1 unit of course credit per quarter while completing your RSLS project and working on your presentation, you can enroll in an optional Independent Study course.

  • ENGL 70R (1st quarter of independent study)
  • ENGL 71R (2nd quarter of independent study)
  • ENGL 72R (3rd quarter of independent study)

Though these courses are currently part of the English department, you can receive credit for projects in any discipline.
